When I try (remember, TRY) to install Halo PC, it says there errors with setup.exe, which means its not going to install.

Not for nothing... but any dirt/scratches on the CD ?
ever cleaned the lens in your drive ?
Many times these errors are due to read errors.
a CD Cleaner like this can help:

You are welcome... most of the time-- if it's from a CD/DVD--errors spell d-i-r-t... they test those CD's before packaging-- so errors on the disc are very rare.
Once in a great while it'll be a bad cable or drive problem.

Marked as fixed.
